Just a slice

Chocolate Pizza Base Ingredients:

250 grams plain flour
2 teaspoons active dried yeast
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons olive oil

Chocolate Pizza Topping Ingredients:
100 grams chocolate spread
4 tablespoons chocolate bits
2 tablespoons crushed peanuts
6 tablespoons thickened cream
1 tablespoon brown sugar

Method:

Prepare the pizza base - combine the plain flour, cocoa powder and salt in a food processor, then pour in the olive oil and prepared yeast. Blend until a dough forms, then knead well on a floured bench. Set aside for an hour to allow the dough to rise.

Prepare the pizza base

Once the dough has doubled in size, roll it out into a flat circular base, then place it gently on a tray and bake for ten minutes in a moderate oven.

Add chocolate bits

Spread the chocolate sauce across the pizza base, then sprinkle on the chocolate bits.

Add some nuts

Sprinkle on the crushed peanuts, brown sugar and the thickened cream, then return the pizza to the oven for five minutes, so that the chocolate and cream melt into each other.
